Ut is the mucous membrane, that wonderful semihuid envelope surrounding the delicate tissues of the air and food passages, that Catarrh makes its stronghold Once established. it eats into the very vitals, and renders lifesbutMa long-drawn breath of misery and disease, duling the sense of hearing, trammeling the power of speech, destroy ing the faculty of smell tainting the breath, and killing the refined pleasures of taste. Insdiousy, by creeping from simple cold in the head, it as saults the membranous lining and envelops the bones, eating through the delicate coats and caus- ing inflammation, s1oughing and death. Nothing short of total eradication will health to the patient, and all alleviatives are simply procrasti- mated sufferings, leading to fatal termination.
